A standoff on Interstate 35 ended peacefully Saturday morning after a man put a gun to his head following a wreck on the highway. Police say they took a Schertz man to an area hospital for care when he threatened suicide and fired at least one shot. No one was hurt during the confrontation. Police responded about 12:25 a.m. to reports of a one-car crash in the 22500 block of Interstate 35's southbound lanes in Schertz, Schertz Police Public Information Officer Anna Kraft said. Police found a car crashed into a concrete barrier and the man alone inside the vehicle and subsequently shutdown traffic in both directions, Kraft said.
